Frequently Asked Questions
We’ve put together some commonly asked questions to give you more information about Campos Financial Group, our services, and partners.
If you have a question that you cannot find the answer to, please use the contact us page.
Most accounts are held through National Financial Services, LLC (Member NYSE/SIPC) or SEI Private Trust (“SPTC”). Mutual fund and annuity accounts may be held directly with the sponsor company.
Securities in accounts carried by National Financial Services, LLC (NFS) are protected in accordance with the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) up to $500,000. The $500,000 total amount of SIPC protection is inclusive of up to $250,000 protection for claims for cash, subject to periodic adjustments for inflation in accordance with terms of the SIPC statute and approval by SIPC’s Board of Directors.
NFS also has arranged for additional protection for cash and covered securities called “excess of SIPC” coverage, from Lloyd’s of London together with other insurers. This additional protection would only be used when SIPC coverage is exhausted. Total aggregate excess of SIPC coverage available through NFS’s excess of SIPC policy is $1 billion. Within NFS’s excess of SIPC coverage, there is no per account limit on coverage of securities, but there is a per account limit of $1.9 million on coverage of cash awaiting investment. This is the maximum excess of SIPC protection currently available in the brokerage industry. Neither coverage protects against a decline in the market value of securities, nor do they cover other claims for losses incurred while broker-dealers remain in business. Certain securities are not eligible for SIPC or excess of SIPC coverage. For more details on SIPC, or to request a SIPC brochure, visit www.sipc.org or call 1-202-371-8300. For ratings and more information about Lloyd’s please go to https://www.lloyds.com/investor-relations/ratings. Among the assets typically not eligible for SIPC or excess of SIPC protection are commodity futures contracts, currency, and precious metals, as well as investment contracts (such as limited partnerships) and fixed annuity contracts that are not registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933.
Osaic Wealth, Inc. is an independent broker-dealer. While giving us access to the securities markets, Osaic provides compliance and supervisory oversight of Campos Financial Group for our clients. You can learn more about them by clicking here or visiting their website: www.osaic.com.
Osaic Wealth, Inc. provides Campos Financial Group with legal, compliance, and supervisory oversight. Campos Financial Group must demonstrate that it follows industry standards in terms of investment recommendations and their suitability for clients. Osaic conducts audits of our books and records to ensure that we are complying with all industry rules and regulations as well as adhering to their strict procedural requirements.
Osaic Wealth, Inc. also surveils our email traffic to make sure there are no misrepresentations or violations of regulations surrounding email communications with clients.
Clients’ assets are held by a third party public custodian. All checks from clients must be made payable directly to the custodian for the benefit of your account (e.g, National Financial Services, SEI, or the direct sponsor mutual fund or annuity company). Campos Financial Group does not have access to client assets. We can generally only move money from your account in the following fashion:
- An EFT or wire transfer to another account at another institution with your written and verbal authorization.
- A check payable to the parties listed on your account registration (e.g. Mr. & Mrs. Smith) and mailed to your address of record.
- Other transfers are possible but only with the client’s express written permission and back-up verification.
No, we do not require you to sell all of your investments. We will work with you to review your accounts and develop a strategy specific to your situation. We hope to help improve your overall portfolio with a strategy, keeping in mind potential tax consequences, penalties, and charges associated with any transaction. You may want to consider selling some investments if you wish to have Campos Financial manage them for you.
Consolidation could be an important step in simplifying your portfolio. The good news is that you might not have to sell your investments to consolidate them and Campos Financial Group will take care of all the paperwork for you. There are potential costs associated with consolidation and we will discuss those with you before we begin the process. These costs are typically diminutive. Some of the benefits associated with consolidation include:
- Reduction in paperwork
- Chances for errors are reduced
- Simplified tax preparation and record keeping
- Easily manage your money flows
- Opportunity to review title issues, beneficiary designations
- Estate administration in case of death or disability is centralized
Note: Consolidation may not be suitable for all investors.
We will help you develop an investment strategy and explain our recommendations. If your strategy includes advisory accounts, transactions are usually carried out on a discretionary basis. You will receive all trade confirmations. If you have specific investments you wish to maintain, they will remain in your account until we receive instructions and authorization to make changes.
A fiduciary is an individual in whom another has placed the utmost trust and confidence to manage and protect property or money. It describes the relationship wherein one person has an obligation to act for another’s benefit in that person’s best interests. Campos Financial Group acts in a fiduciary capacity for its investment advisory clients.
When we recommend investments that pay commissions, a fiduciary relationship does not exist. Clients of Campos Financial Group in fee-based accounts do not pay commissions, hence a fiduciary relationship exists.
We do have the ability to earn commissions on certain transactions, but these cannot be executed in fee-based accounts. If a client wants to purchase an investment that carries a commission, we can facilitate it in a separate, non-fee based account.

Certain securities are not eligible for SIPC or excess of SIPC coverage. For more details on SIPC, or to request a SIPC brochure, visit www.sipc.org or call 1-202-371-8300. For ratings and more information about Lloyd’s please go to https://www.lloyds.com/investor-relations/ratings. Among the assets typically not eligible for SIPC or excess of SIPC protection are commodity futures contracts, currency, and precious metals, as well as investment contracts (such as limited partnerships) and fixed annuity contracts that are not registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933.

Osaic Wealth, Inc. provides Campos Financial Group with legal, compliance, and supervisory oversight. Campos Financial Group must demonstrate that it follows industry standards in terms of investment recommendations and their suitability for clients. Osaic conducts audits of our books and records to ensure that we are complying with all industry rules and regulations as well as adhering to their strict procedural requirements.

Clients’ assets are held by a third party public custodian. All checks from clients must be made payable directly to the custodian for the benefit of your account (e.g, National Financial Services, SEI, or the direct sponsor mutual fund or annuity company). Campos Financial Group does not have access to client assets. We can generally only move money from your account in the following fashion:
- An EFT or wire transfer to another account at another institution with your written and verbal authorization.
- A check payable to the parties listed on your account registration (e.g. Mr. & Mrs. Smith) and mailed to your address of record.
- Other transfers are possible but only with the client’s express written permission and back-up verification.
No, we do not require you to sell all of your investments. We will work with you to review your accounts and develop a strategy specific to your situation. We hope to help improve your overall portfolio with a strategy, keeping in mind potential tax consequences, penalties, and charges associated with any transaction. You may want to consider selling some investments if you wish to have Campos Financial manage them for you.
Consolidation could be an important step in simplifying your portfolio. The good news is that you might not have to sell your investments to consolidate them and Campos Financial Group will take care of all the paperwork for you. There are potential costs associated with consolidation and we will discuss those with you before we begin the process. These costs are typically diminutive. Some of the benefits associated with consolidation include:
- Reduction in paperwork
- Chances for errors are reduced
- Simplified tax preparation and record keeping
- Easily manage your money flows
- Opportunity to review title issues, beneficiary designations
- Estate administration in case of death or disability is centralized
Note: Consolidation may not be suitable for all investors.
We will help you develop an investment strategy and explain our recommendations. If your strategy includes advisory accounts, transactions are usually carried out on a discretionary basis. You will receive all trade confirmations. If you have specific investments you wish to maintain, they will remain in your account until we receive instructions and authorization to make changes.
A fiduciary is an individual in whom another has placed the utmost trust and confidence to manage and protect property or money. It describes the relationship wherein one person has an obligation to act for another’s benefit in that person’s best interests. Campos Financial Group acts in a fiduciary capacity for its investment advisory clients.
When we recommend investments that pay commissions, a fiduciary relationship does not exist. Clients of Campos Financial Group in fee-based accounts do not pay commissions, hence a fiduciary relationship exists.
We do have the ability to earn commissions on certain transactions, but these cannot be executed in fee-based accounts. If a client wants to purchase an investment that carries a commission, we can facilitate it in a separate, non-fee based account.
